Don't Waste Your Time in the Canadian Rockies

Hiking In Banff National Park

Since publishing the first edition of Don't Waste Your Time in the Canadian Rockies, The Opinionated Hiking Guide in 1994, we've received hundreds of letters from people who've used it to guide them while hiking in Banff National Park. Here are a few of their comments:

"I thought hiking in Banff National Park would be amazing, but I had no idea it would affect me so deeply. I used to be pretty happy living in Michigan, but now it just seems too far from Banff to be satisfactory."
-- Nick Thayer, Kalamazoo, Michigan

"Though I've been a hiker ever since I was a kid, it wasn't until I went hiking in Banff National Park that I understood the full potential of hiking. Now that is hiking!"
-- Randy King, Darlington, Ontario

"Knowing that I'm hiking where there is wildlife, where I might see a mountain goat, or an elk, or a bear, that's a very different feeling than I get when I'm hiking where I'll only see lots of other people. That's the difference between hiking in Europe and hiking in Banff National Park."
-- Lorna Schiffer, Berlin, Germany

Want to experience hiking in Banff National Park the way these people did? The book you need is Don't Waste Your Time in the Canadian Rockies, The Opinionated Hiking Guide. The unusual title is appropriate, because it's an unusually helpful, enjoyable, beautiful guidebook.
